I love you - Chapter 4

Many of the people who were in the square were moving away. Elizbeth kept looking at Newton and caressing him, thanking him for his beautiful commitment as a horse in Robert's rescue; The horse seemed to respond to him, making noise and hitting the ground, when Elizabeth smiling spoke softly:

- You're like your owner, a real mountie.

The horse had nowhere else to be imposing, Nathan noticed and approached, whatever she said to him now, if the horse was a person I think it would have rosy cheeks. Nathan had approached and noticed that she was awkward, a little shy around him, she looked at the ground embarrassed, both by Lucas and his attack in words and by the looks of some people in the square, or by the fear of Robert having an accident, when he heard her speak softly to Newton:

- How am I going to apologize to Nathan for stealing you from him. I know Newton that you're a mountie's horse and I even robbed you in front of the police station, I think I'm going to end up arrested for that, and who's going to take care of Jack, the sergeant and Robert while I'm arrested, just thinking about it makes me terrified.

That's when Nathan noticed her fear, besides everything she knew that horse theft could have consequences; He looked at Bill on the stairs, where everything heard too, and silently they thought and smiled sealing an agreement, that's when Nathan right behind her came and said softly in his ear:

- You know that stealing a horse from a mountie has consequences and jail?

She looking at Newton replied in a low voice:

- Yes I know, and I am prepared to pay my debt to society.

- But Elizabeth! Loving people to the point of putting your life on the line, your reputation for how to ride a horse in that outfit and risk being arrested or hurting a mountie horse, that's also taken into account.

She turned her head, and Nathan noticed her wet eyes, and staring into those blue eyes, which made him dive into a different world, he held her face with both hands and said:

- I was so afraid of losing you my Lizbeth; I thought I was going to lose you, Alien and I were in agony, I know you had to try to save Robert, but promise me, if something like this ever happens, and shout, and let me hold your hand and together we will solve the problems.

- Yes Nathan, I promise.

- I'm very proud of you! Me, Bill and Alien know the love you give to your students and that you would do anything for them.

- Nathan! Elizabeth with red cheeks was all shy, looking at Nathan, that man she always loved, but tried to run away afraid of losing him like she lost Jack.

Nathan had never felt such a deep feeling for another woman, he never imagined being able to love someone like this and now looking into his eyes, those eyes overflowing with love for him, only made his desire for a family between them increase even more, alternating his gaze between his blue eyes from his Lizbeth to that beautiful pink mouth, he silently asked her permission to kiss her and after her confirmation, he lowered his head and gave her a light and small kiss, as they had to maintain their composure due to the location and time. She had an irresistible, sweet, small, soft and humid mouth, he wanted to stay there forever, but knowing he couldn't, he pulled Lizbeth into his arms, hugging her tightly and kissing her temple.

- Will you have dinner with me tonight? Me, you and our children?

- I'd love to, Nathan! Said a smiling and exuberant Elizabeth in her arms.

- Nathan, can you help me with Robert? He is inspired by Jack and everything he was as a mountie for the city and its people but he often acts like a child without thinking about the consequences. giggle making Nathan's chest overflow with joy, and so she continued to say that she would talk to Robert first, that scolding, that ear tugging that unfortunately I have to give along with her punishment. But then you can talk to him, about the mountie, his profession, his risks and about the protection and care of the citizens of a city, so he can think well about today and its consequences.

- It will be a pleasure, my love. He'll understand, to tell you the truth the way he looked at you I thought he already saw the gravity of his act. And to tell you the truth, I think he'll be a great mountie yet.

That same day Robert had a long and difficult conversation with his teacher, a beautiful punishment of being away from sergeant for thirty days, in addition to him now having the guilty conscience of having put her life at risk, after a very enlightening conversation with Nathan.

Dinner was great, Bill made all the foods Elizabeth liked, as a silent way of saying he was proud of her and what she did. Alien was overflowing with joy, having a new little brother Jack, his heart felt like it was going to burst with happiness. And that night ended with some passionate kissing between Nathan and Elizabeth, while their children were in Jack's room reading a story.
